Themed Blankets & a Pillow for a School Fundraiser...

My son goes to parochial school, and they host a Winter Festival every year around early to mid February. The classrooms put together a themed gift basket to auction off at the Festival in order to help raise money for their school. My son's classroom is putting together a Family Game Night theme, and another classroom is putting together a Camping theme. I've made blankets for each of these themed gift baskets...

"ANTS ON A PICNIC"
Camping/Picnic Themed Blanket

I used a red canvas for the back of this picnic blanket to make it more durable.
I purchased the red canvas from JoAnn's Fabrics in Janesville, WI.
The cute Ants on a Picnic fabric was an eBay purchase sometime during the summer of 2010. I saw it online and fell in love with it, always intending it to be for a picnic blanket. To add some size to the Ants on a Picnic panel, I added squares of some scrap fabrics I had leftover from previous blanket projects.
